ANNOUNCEMENTS

REO Speedwagon concert postponed

The REO Speedwagon show scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 21, at the Deadwood Mountain Grand has been postponed. Lead singer Kevin Cronin announced on Facebook late Wednesday that he’s scheduled for a “routine procedure” that will force the classic rock band to reschedule some concerts. Cronin, 66, said the procedure is not life-threatening, and has been assured by doctors he will be “good as new.” Officials with the Deadwood Mountain Grand said they are working with the band to reschedule a concert date, and will notify all ticket holders once that date has been set. They said ticket holders should hang on to their tickets to the sold-out show. Refunds will be available through the original ticketing outlet. If tickets were purchased through Ticketmaster, contact Ticketmaster at 800-745-3000. If tickets were purchased through the Deadwood Mountain Grand Company Store, call 559-1188.

Local artist honored

The Tri-State Museum and Visitor Center will hold a reception to honor the memory of a one-time Belle Fourche artist, Davy Barr.

A release from the museum says the event will also note the re-hanging of a Barr painting, which was recently restored and returned to the museum. The painting, “To the Chutes,” is an oil work painted in 1930 of cowboys driving cattle across the plains.

Barr was born in Missouri in 1857, but moved with his family to Butte County in 1887. He was living in Belle Fourche when it was incorporated in 1903. When he died at 97 in 1954, he was the oldest original resident of Belle Fourche.

He was best known for his paintings. During the first half of the 20th century, his works were featured in a number of local homes and businesses, including banks and City Hall.

The event will be from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, and will include an official unveiling and a presentation by local historical writer Wayne Gilbert. The reception is free and refreshments will be served. For more information, call 723-1200 or visit thetristatemuseum.com.
